Chelsea will pay a heavy price if they sack Rosenior.

Chelsea may have to spend a huge sum to terminate Liam Rosenior's contract amid the team's serious slump.

Rosenior still has six years left on his contract with Chelsea.

Chelsea faced a difficult challenge after their 0-3 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion in the 34th round of the Premier League on the morning of April 22nd, a match that put immense pressure on manager Liam Rosenior.

According to British media, if Chelsea want to sack the 41-year-old manager right now, they may have to pay compensation of up to £24 million. Rosenior was only appointed in January to replace Enzo Maresca and signed a six-and-a-half-year contract.

The former Strasbourg coach's salary is reportedly around £4 million per season. Without special reduction clauses, the amount Chelsea would have to pay to terminate his contract early would be substantial.

The situation has become even more tense as the London team has suffered a serious decline in the Premier League. Chelsea are currently 7 points behind the UEFA Champions League qualification spots, with only 4 rounds remaining in the season.

Even more worrying, the defeat against Brighton extended Chelsea's domestic league losing streak to five consecutive games without scoring a single goal. This is the club's worst record since 1912.

Rosenior's record since taking over the team has also been unconvincing: 23 matches, 11 wins, 2 draws, and 10 losses. Despite showing some initial positive signs, Chelsea quickly reverted to their familiar inconsistent form.

If Chelsea decide to change managers, they will have to find a fourth coach after Maresca, Calum McFarlane (interim), and Rosenior. But given the huge compensation costs involved, the club's leadership will probably have to be patient for at least a little longer.

For now, Rosenior still has a chance to redeem himself if he helps Chelsea progress further in the FA Cup and improve their performance in the final stages of the season.
